How is titanium alloy processed

Titanium alloy is widely used in aircraft structural parts and heat-resistant parts. It is one of the main structural materials of aircraft and engines in modern times and is known as "space metal".

But titanium alloy is like a strong horse, must tame its strength, in order to achieve the goal of thousands of miles a day, so how can "tame" titanium alloy?

Titanium alloy poor thermal conductivity, high hardness, easy to rebound. Poor thermal conductivity is reflected in the large amount of heat generated by friction in the process of processing. If it is other metals, it will be quickly transferred to the whole, such as the pot we usually use.

But poor thermal conductivity of titanium alloy, heat will continue to gather, making titanium alloy become sticky, make the tool by heat brittle, wear seriously, or even damage the tool, as if using a knife to cut gummy candy.

Titanium alloy hardness, also used in the aircraft aluminum alloy material processing is simple: processing 1 meter of titanium alloy material time can process 25 meters of aluminum alloy material, and also more knife saving, but aluminum alloy strength is difficult to meet the requirements, so titanium alloy processing although difficult, but very necessary. And titanium alloy rebound is serious, affecting the precision of parts processing, especially for thin wall, complex shape parts, its processing difficulty is greater.

This horse can be our titanium alloy used for aviation equipment manufacturing, believe that with the development of aviation industry general scientific and technical workers, exploration, and gradually deepen our understanding of titanium alloy, tame titanium alloy for the horse, we will have more means, it will be for our country's aviation industry to make greater contribution!
